Actually those yards are not heavy in general. Honestly I think the idea is more of not loosing space when opening the holds on deck, they have to be stored somewhere. Another point is,, those covers have very low maintenance, beside paint and rubber not much, Hydraulik gives over time a lot problem and plenty maintenance. The size of the hydraulic does not really maater, I mean now by power,, 300 bar or 600 bar,,all no big deal,, but here the storage and utilizing space
I think is the biggest factor I would say.
As for the cargo,,I meant more to get cargo into the hold, with a big long opening much easier and bigger cargoes can be placed into the holds.

Well, I was acting on the assumption that nowadays there'd be a hydraulic solution on every modern ship with hatches:-)
You live and learn...
And Theo, great set of photos of Industrial More you got there!

why,,god knows,,but usually it comes down to money or but bad planning, which in this case would somehow surprise me. Would be really interesting to know why that was done like that.
